Well i guessthe plan could be, TRAIN in the US, get the medical, enjoy the time there, stay and become an instructor to get some more hours (if they let you stay on which is seming less and less likely considering just about every person who trains is gonna wanna doit).
Problem is, i probably wouldnt be able to join vigin/ba nfact any european airline. i do wonder what happens to those guys who pay 60k at oxford aviation school...
